(ET/CBS) – Their parents may have teamed up on the presidential campaign trail, but Meghan McCain had some choice words for Bristol Palin, 20, after hearing that she didn’t vote in the midterm election.

“I guess it’s only important for Bristol Palin to vote for ‘Dancing With the Stars'” Meghan told Jay Leno during her appearance on the “Tonight Show.” Senator John McCain’s daughter explained that she’s been voting since she was 18 and in her family “if you didn’t vote … that was like bad news.”

The 26-year-old added, “I think a lot of women worked really hard to give us the right to vote. Anyone that doesn’t vote is just ridiculous.”
